Brief Answer:inflammation due to allergic response

Detailed Answer:hello and welcome,

your history suggests that you have had an allergic reaction to an allergen in your environment. As its localized to your hands it could be a new detergent , chemical.it could also be a drug reaction or an insect bite. think over the possible cause.

The cause cant always be isolated. I would advise anti histamines like Benadryl to take now to reduce the swelling and itching. I would also like you to change your current clothes and clean yourself with lukewarm soap water to prevent any bug from causing more damage.

let me know if you have any query.if not kindly close the conversation and rate the answer.thanks.

Can you please give me an idea of what the attached blood report indicates - allergies? Urine Infection? etc. the Uric Acid and IgE (whatever that is) appear to be very high. Can you suggest treatments? Thank you!

Hi, I regularly battle with sinus. I have just been on a three day course antibiotics and my headaches still persists. The pain is mainly above my eyebrows. I used anti histamine before, but if I drink it at night, I can't function properly until noon the next day. If I drink it in the morning, I feel wiped out by 4pm. A friend gave me a few celestamine tablets which seem to work better, but then I have to take it when I'm already in bed, as it makes me very wobbly - fast! I have been combining it with Panamor for the last 3 nights. It seems to have worked out by morning because I feel fine when I wake up. The problem is that the sinus headaches start by about 2-3pm and persists until bedtime. I don't want to drink strong painkillers, but it seems to be the only thing that helps. We want to start trying for a second baby soon, but I don't want to until I have my own health under control. Any advice?
